Guys I'm down 125 lbs!! But I've been at 230 for 2 weeks! I'm used to dropping at least 4lbs a week! Any advice would help!! Ooooooooo & I'm 5 months out!

Vicki: I was a slow loser at first. But now I'm 9 months out from surgery' date=' reached goal weight of 125. I've lost 117lbs since the morning of surgery.

Just remember to track everything you eat. I use MFP - My Fitness Pal. Protein is extremely important to weight loss so make sure you are getting enough of it. From 4-9 months, I have needed 100g + of protein. Your surgeon will be able to tell you what you need on your visits by looking at your lab results.

I think that's Wat has happened to me. I really got my protein in the first 3wks then it kept making me sick, so I try to eat my protein, n I can't eat enough to get allot of protein. So my weight lost has really slowed down. N every time I eat im eating to much. Im wks out n I don't want to goof

I feel like i am eating alot too...1000 calories not problem...but i am having issues with meat and I dont eat fish, so alot of my protein is cheese, yogurt., protein shakes and bars...??? is that ok...i get about 60 gr.average a day..

I meant to say i'm 6wks out.

I eat about 500 to 700 calories. I get about 40 to 60g protein a day.

I make sure I get a minimum of 60g of Protein but usually it is between 80 and 100. My calories are around 850 a day. Much of my protein is from food but I usually have 1 shake and half a Quest Protein Bar to keep my numbers up. I am down 45 since surgery on July 10.

I have a problem w meats too and don't eat fish either. I'll eat the Special K Plus Protein Cereal w milk, Almonds, Protein Bars, Danon Light n Fit Greek Yogurt 2x protein, cheese, cottage cheese. I still have at least 1 shake a day depending what I need for protein (sometimes 2 shakes).

That is one thing I don't have trouble with is meat. I love meat of all kinds. So that's where im getting my protein.
